Map size is a matter of taste. And currently smaller maps are more popular.

Most of the 3v3 maps are 4v4 maps and are actually way too big for 3v3. Playing Lienne or La Gleize in 3v3 is like having a pencil shoved in your urethra.

4v4 is the only game mode where two players fight at the same time and place. This is almost always the fuel. Two fuels = 2 players each on each fuel. The map size almost does not matter.

Larger maps like General Mud, Vielsalm, La Gleize, etc are played much less than small/narrow maps like Hamburg or Red Ball. This leads us to believe the majority of players like smaller maps.

The other issue with large maps in team games is the match making. No one wants to play on some giant map with bad team mates. I /L immediately on large maps if I see my mate doing something stupid. I am not going to waste 20 minutes on a giant map just to get smashed because my mate is a complete noob. You do not actually get to play since your units are just walking for 1-2 minutes.

Forward retreats on large maps become very OP. This leads to very unbalanced maps.

Currently (by design?) there are a good balance between large and small maps in the map pool for 4v4. 3v3 is a mess and needs new maps. Since we do not know the complete design of Coh3, it is hard to say what size the maps should be.

I did not play any of the COH3 alphas (because the coh2 match making is broken and relicans have small PeePees)so I cant say for sure if the map sizes are good/bad for 1v1 and 2v2. But MonolithicBacon is on the mapping team and his map sizes usually vary. So there should be a good mix of sizes in Coh3. Just a guess.

My stationary tanks automatically chasing down enemies on their own when I don't tell them to, if an enemy unit enters its LoS and then runs away. I *hate* that, and really demonstrates the need for a hold position function.

This happens when you tell your unit to attack another unit. After you tell the unit to attack, hit the stop button so it goes back to auto targeting.

You know killing someone's base takes longer than quitting, right?

Multiplayer games need some way to police themselves.

I can't launch CELO after installation..

There are two other CELO programs you can try.

MakoCELO and Coh2Stats.Com Desktop app.

Coh2Stats.Com is probably the easiest to use.

Currently MakoCELO will try to show you when arranged teams are playing. However, the desktop app is under construction and getting better every day.

Id like to think the .org community would pitch in together and buy it for you. Not because you need our help to buy it, but because we can't afford to lose one of our finest entertainers (and mapmakers)

Why I do declare, this gives me the vapors
